Surviving Mars

Deep systems to master

A city builder where you found a Mars colony and keep it alive with domes, drones and careful resource management. The appeal lies in planning supply chains and surviving hostile conditions.

Light of Altair

Economy and management

A sci-fi colony builder where you grow settlements from a landing pod into metropolises and send ships to claim new worlds. Diplomacy and orbital combat against eight factions, plus a substantial plot, define the experience.

Creeper World 4

Tactical depth

A real-time strategy game where you build towers, weapons and energy networks to contain and push back a spreading fluid-like menace. The fluid dynamics turn each map into a tactical puzzle.

Dyson Sphere Program

Deep systems to master

A space factory-automation game where you build production chains across multiple planets and ultimately wrap a star in a Dyson sphere. The appeal lies in optimizing sprawling logistics networks on a galactic scale.

Jurassic World Evolution

Deep systems to master

A park-building management sim where you breed dinosaurs, design enclosures and attractions, and keep guests safe when predators break loose. The impressively animated dinosaurs and the film license are the main draw.

Probably Stolen

Calm and deliberate

A cyberpunk shopkeeping sim on a dystopian space station where you craft, trade and smuggle dubious goods, juggle faction loyalties, and race to buy out your shop before rent crushes you. A rogue AI adds a combat threat on the side.
